About this study

Official title: The Effect of Changes in Body Mass Index After Total Knee and Hip Arthroplasty on Patient Functional Scores

PURPOSE Obesity poses challenges to preoperative mobility and functional recovery for arthroplasty patients, yet postoperative weight loss remains elusive. This study aims to investigate postoperative weight changes and their impact on functional scores following knee and hip arthroplasty, exploring factors influencing these changes.

METHODS A total of 459 knee and hip arthroplasty cases with a 2-year follow-up were analyzed. BMI and Oxford scores were tracked, alongside factors including comorbidities, corticosteroid use, physiotherapy, and unilateral vs. bilateral surgery.

EXPECTED OUTCOMES Based on the study's design and the data available, we anticipate observing the impact of changes in patients' BMI on clinical scores as an independent variable. Additionally, we aim to elucidate the effects of comorbidities, corticosteroid use, physiatrist follow-up, and the type of surgical procedure on both BMI and clinical outcomes. Through this analysis, we expect to gain a comprehensive understanding of how these factors interplay to influence postoperative recovery and overall patient health.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. BMI

    Body Mass Index (BMI) is a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Oxford hip and knee scores

    It is scored between 0 and 48. 48 is the best function.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Total Knee Arthroplasty and Total Hip arthroplasty in people with Arthropathy and Obesity, run by Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

BMI (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06440863, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jun 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
